I agree with you entirely. But possibly in this election cycle, establishment candidates (Jeb! & Hillary->) are both getting a run for their money. Enter Trump and Sanders, the establishment is getting rocked and all of the duopoly electioneering is being exposed. Instead of commenting on the unfairness of the process, the usual culprits here go to their fall back 'should have known better' position. Guess one can make excuses for any democratic process as long as it is not impacting your horse adversely in the race. Let's all take a look at Brazil for a look into the future.

Good luck Hillary 'Dilma' Clinton today, not that you will need it. It's already been pre-paid.
